This article aims to clarify CIPFA’s views on the arrangements for ‘public audit’, as reflected in its submissions to the Nolan Committee and the subsequent Cabinet Office/Treasury Review of external audit in the public services. In particular, it attempts to correct perceived misapprehensions about CIPFA's attitude to the role of the private audit firms in public sector audit.
